ESPN Ocho has the Savannah Bananas.  First time I’ve seen them.  It’s a bit.. different.

I wonder if this creep is at the game today. Might be the only time in franchise history it'd be an appropriate wear.

Every time I look at Sheets’ stats, I can’t believe he still gets playing time.

Exactly.  I said since he the beginning of the season when he had a .800 to .900 OPS, would fall back to his norms.  Some people even thought he would have trade value, lol.  He’s a DFA candidate.

Omg!   That’s awesome, good job scouts

TRADE WON, 

W for GETZ

Anyone hear Schriffen oddly and unnecessarily get excited that Vaughn is hitting .264 at Target Field in his career?

Are Schriffen and Stoney ever enjoyable? Haven't heard a game this year, just highlights. Do they have discussions like Stoney and Bennetti used to have? I enjoyed their banter, even when they just joked around and busted each others' chops. Are these 2 ever interesting, etc?

Just heard Vargas homered. No matter what we think of the trade, how sorry the Sox are, etc I hope this kid succeeds here 

Katz earning that paycheck

Martin looks he could possibly be a decent late inning reliever, if it helps his velocity.

He has absolutely nothing to work with.  Outside of Crochet, this is barely a AAA pitching staff.

It speaks volumes when the Twins are better at every single position.

No.  Schiffren is horrendous and Stoney has mailed it in and is just collecting paychecks.

No joke, the Bananas are easily more popular amongst 10-13 year old baseball players than the Sox.

God that was a horrible swing.*

 

*comment can apply to every at bat on this team. 

I don't recognize the opposing wardrobe. Minneapolis Millers??

if a pitching coach can only generate quality pitchers from high rated prospects, he isn't doing a great job. you need to hit on some lottery tickets too, just fucking hit on 1 or 2, still waiting

The unis are CityConnect. Tribute to The Land Of 10,000 Lakes. Water is blue I get it. 

Did Schriffen growl when Vargas homered?  Any other growls?

Sox have helped a number of teams turn things around. Sal's Pals now on a five-game run. 

I first met John doing soap-box derby semis at Cicero Lanes. John is a diverse talent.
